hmm, little missunderstanding maybe...

i do use my personal google calendar excessively . in fact, my life depends on it ;)

but i do not use the special google weather calendar and it shows up anyways and on every day with a forecast i cannot read. it always says something like "Forecast for Cologne (27 ..." which is not very informative as the interesting data is cut off ;)

it´s different on your screenshot...
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
hummm ... not sure to understand :/

can you send me your sreenshot please ?
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
new beta :

[G1 Apps and Games] athurdent:
gee, how do i make a real screenshot without rooting my phone or installing the sdk?

dxtop has an option to use the camera button but my htc magic does not have camera button.

anyway, here you go, oldschool screenshot ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
ouch !!!

where does it comes from ? very strange, thoses strings are reserved for events (not weather informations !)

Do you use something else to provide weather informations ? something which is putting weather informations in agenda ?

is there something in your agenda for today for example ?

can you try lastest version ?

EDIT : I am pretty sure that thoses informations are comming from "calendar". Are you using something like "Weather bug" ?
[G1 Apps and Games] athurdent:
with the latest beta it´s gone. the infomation comes from the google public weather calendar, it's a selectable calendar choice (on the phone and online when you login to googles calendar. now that i have the choice not to display the weather calendar, it's gone. though i can still switch it on by selecting "weather" as a calendar.

many thanks!
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
perfect ! :)
[G1 Apps and Games] treoking:
I bring you new ideas... I miss in your program two details that the JS Weather widgets have it...

- Select different weather stations (airports, etc) or select Google Weather if you want...

- In the widget 2x1, a information layer would be very good... Humidity, wind, lunar phase could be seen quickly...

If you need more traductions to spanish, write me... ;)

I'm writing you for a bug on the configuration 4x2 widget... and the new version has arrived in the market...

;)

At the moment all OK...

EDIT:

You has used the old version of the strings traduction... I send you the new version with some changes few days ago... You have it here

EDIT 2:

The widget works OK for me...
[G1 Apps and Games] :
Installed from market and working well.

Automaticly detects german and celsius now! :)
[G1 Apps and Games] treoking:
Before a second configuration on the 4x2, the widget not work... It stops on "Loading data..."

EDIT:

New configuration and has worked... ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
yes, useful isn't it ;)

ok, updated. thanks.
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
strange, can you send me your logcat to check if an exception occurs ?
[G1 Apps and Games] treoking:
It seems a network problem, because I configure the widget once again and it worked...

EDIT:

In the 4x2 layout:

- If I select 24h format, in the next configuration the option appears unselected...

- I select the main icon for the current conditions, but the text say the full day forecast and not the current conditions...
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
hummm ... strange ... can you check your logcat to be sure ? I have random problem like this sometime.
[G1 Apps and Games] treoking:
How I check my logcat¿? I don't know how do it...

I edited the previous post with some issues:

In the 4x2 layout:

- If I select 24h format, in the next configuration the option appears unselected...

- I select the main icon for the current conditions, but the text say the full day forecast and not the current conditions...
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
logcat > use 'log collector' available on market ;)

24h format > found & solved :)

full day forecast > ok, understood, I'll look at this.
[G1 Apps and Games] treoking:
The icon samples the current conditions, but the text under the temperature says the full day forecast and not the current condition...
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
24h format & current/day forecast should be solved in this version :

[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:

[G1 Apps and Games] treoking:
The new version works correct, with the new strings of spanish and the two bugs corrected...

No error in reconfiguration...

Thanks...
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
good.

from my side, a new bug detected with multiday events (show start time from pasted days).
[G1 Apps and Games] athurdent:
new beta looks good to me, didn´t have time to test all though. you're too fast :)

could you maybe display the daily forecast temperature after the date?

like

Aug 1, 2009 (27°/16° C)

or is that too much information / overload?
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
good idea !

I'll put it as optionnal to avoid complains :)
[G1 Apps and Games] treoking:
It's a good idea, yes...

[G1 Apps and Games] treoking:
athurdent, could you test the new beta?

I don't like betas :(
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
published :D (2 mails complains about this sorting problem)
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
a good thing to test beta :

a shortcut to unistall current version

C:\android\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r1\tools\adb.exe uninstall org.koxx.forecast_weather.v2

a shorcut to install new version of any APK by sliding a file on the shorcut :

C:\android\android-sdk-windows-1.1_r1\tools\adb.exe install -r
[G1 Apps and Games] treoking:
There are more people that complains about multiple updates... But I prefer that and having updated aplications...
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
lol .. new release :

2.3.4 : fix day 2/3/4 duration problems
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
I know ... I know ... but when updates are very close from each other, people don't see anything ;)

especially now when US guys are sleeping ! lol.
[G1 Apps and Games] treoking:
:D:D:D

People want to kill you... xDD
[G1 Apps and Games] athurdent:
i love updates, but i can´t keep up it seems :)

small formatting bug, the bottom of the "g" from August is cut off a little.
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
lol .... you see EVERYTHING :D

I know this 'bug' ... but I gorgot :)

my problem, if I use font padding (to be sure, i'll won't cut any letter), this is the result :

day 3 is cutted
[G1 Apps and Games] athurdent:
yeah, well. don't know about other languages, but august is the only problematic month i think. the p in september could also be affected but no one should see that. so i'd say, just leave it like it is.

but as i see everything, there's another small thing which bugs me for a little longer and could be easily fixed :)

a small border line is missing on the bottom of the "update" symbol, the "configure" symbol has it. :rolleyes:
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
corrected !

I saw it a lot of time : always telling me "it's ugly, I have to do something next time..." ... next time ... now ! yes ! :p

http://koxx3.free.fr/SkyInternationalKoxx.v2-235b1.apk
[G1 Apps and Games] athurdent:
cool, thank you!
[G1 Apps and Games] pagubg:
Perfect work :) Thanks to koxx! Now i am able to get weather information for Bulgaria :)

yeticomes: I think i can help you. I was having the same problem, but i have slove it.

First you will need (adb). Then, remount the /system folder to read/write mode (adb remount). You must see something like this (remount succeeded). Next, you need to backup your existing weather widget. [ adb pull /system/app/Sky-101.apk /home/username/ or C: it depends of your OS. ]. Now i think you should reboot your phone [ adb shell reboot ]. You need to remount /system folder again. Ones you are done, push the new widget to /system/app folder [ adb push SkyInternational_b06.apk /system/app/ ]. Reboot the phone again and it must be working now. At least it works for me.

P.S I think BEFORE everything you need to clear the old widget data from "manage application" menu.
[G1 Apps and Games] biAji:
Great work! The only issue is , if I use zh-CN...the chinese character can not display correctly.
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
arghh ! I don't know how to display chinese characters !

I'll have a watch.

Do you know what is your encoding ? GB2312 ? Big5 ?

I think, I'll add a string in the configuration panel to choose encoding.
[G1 Apps and Games] yeticomes:
Thank you pagubg - I tried it with the terminal because I do not have any idea of adb but it does not work because I have a read only filesystem?!

Maybe I will have to solve this first - I thought I can use Linda in SU Mode or something like this ...
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
I made a new version (beta7, in first page).

You will be able to set the encoding of XML file read from google (in the configuration panel).

You just have to found the good encoding I think.

Let me know if it is OK.
[G1 Apps and Games] pagubg:
Nope, you need adb installed on your computer first, to enable / (root) folder to read/write. You can download Android SDK to get adb if you are using linux, or search in the forum howto do this for windows users. In other case, you need to remount the system folder manually. First you need to make su in the terminal emulator application, and then you can try this command to remount the /system folder in read-write mode:

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
[G1 Apps and Games] Ronnymes:
Great app, it's working good in NL :) tnx!
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
exactly, with the lastest Dude, I had to remount my /system in R/W to remove /system/app/Sky-101.apk

But, I don't advise you to copy the new version in /system/app/

I think it's better to install it as a "normal" app (copy APK on sdcard + install from Linda).
[G1 Apps and Games] wyinsz:
zh-CN is GB2312, Simplified Chinese for mainland China.

zh-TW is Big5, Traditional Chinese for Taiwan.
[G1 Apps and Games] wyinsz:
I have tried these encodings in b07 & b08, not working properly, are you using specific font to display? As I know the 3MB DroidSansFallback.ttf contains the Chinese characters.
[G1 Apps and Games] wyinsz:
by the way, the widget title and the weekday in detail can display correctly.
[G1 Apps and Games] emms007:
Hello Koxx :)

Thanks for this updated version, great!!

By the way, instead of the ugly remount to get rid of the app, you can simply type :

adb uninstall org.jsharkey.sky

Hi,

what is the work version for Italy'

i trid to install .09 but crash always.

I vae installaed SkyInternational_mod_Koxx_1.02b09.apk and create a widget by widget panel.

When i save my setting it crash.

In the settting : "it " is for Italy or other ?

bye
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
no font specified in the widget (default font)
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
Yes, "it"

It should works.

Where are you in Italy ?

I tried with Fiumicino, and it works.

What firmware do you use ?

beta10 uploaded
[G1 Apps and Games] Serpico1979:
Hi,

thanks 4 your work.........

With .10 version is all OK !
[G1 Apps and Games] yeticomes:
thank you both - that is what I did:

remounted /system and rm the Sky-101.apk

NO reboot & installed the apk from sdcard with Linda - force close when I choose the tiny widget :-(

Now I de-installed it & rebooted and try another time
[G1 Apps and Games] Hendrik212:
Hi,

great widget, works without any problems in Germany:)

Would it be possible to include an option to show current temp as well?
[G1 Apps and Games] pychobj2001:
Still doesn't work w/ jsv1.5 rom even after v.10 i really want the so bad....:(
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
yes, it should be possible, maybe in a next version ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] uberingram:
Is the calendar 4x2 widget working? I try to set it and it just sits at a black Configure screen.
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
if somebody knows how to catch calendar events add/remove/end ... that would be gret. I am looking during 5h without result :(
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
Hello,

yes, it should works.

which version are you using ? 2.3.4 ?

you need DONATE version to use this new layout.
[G1 Apps and Games] uberingram:
OK, got it working and configured but it wont show calendar entries. I check the ones I want and hit back but it doesn't save my selections. Is there a special trick?
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
What do you means by 'hit back', you have to push 'ok' when choosing calendars, we agree ?

can you send me a screenshot ?

what do you see on the widget ?
[G1 Apps and Games] uberingram:
Maybe I have too many calendars because I think I found this "OK" button. When I select "Select Calendars" it brings up a list of my calendars to either check nor not (over a dozen). If I high light the last calendar with the trackball then scroll down it selects something below where I can't see. If I press down the trackball it selects whatever it is and actually saves my selection.

I'm running a really borked version of Ubuntu and I can't get DDMS to work. :(

Maybe I can type it out for you.

Location // Current Conditions image // Current conditions with Hi/Lo

Day1

---

Day2

---

Day3

---

All I'm getting under the days is literally "---" and the lower right quadrant of the widget displays nothing at all but if I touch it the calendar app comes up.
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
I may have a limitation... I never tried with so much calendars :D

I'll check this today.

EDIT : new beta 2.3.5b2 :

- calendars selector with scrollbar & no hidden buttons

http://koxx3.free.fr/SkyInternationalKoxx.v2-235b2.apk

i'd like to make feature request, i think it may look nice as i always place the weather widget on a background with a sky.

if it's not too much work, could you make an option to display all icons in "night view" at night?

i know it's not really technically correct but it would look cool ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
background > hummm ... not sure to understand. You want a specific background for the widget ? or for android page ? for widget, you can create our own background easily if you want (with background skins).

night icons > yes, it's possible ... but adding an option for that, not sure. I think there is already too much options, configuration panel is big :(
[G1 Apps and Games] athurdent:
background: no, i was just describing my setup

night icons: okay, if you think there are too much options then no night icons, would have been nice though ;)

[G1 Apps and Games] sputnik99:
He is saying that he puts the widget on top of his wallpaer, which is a picture of a sky, so it seems the sun, moon or whatever is part of the wallpaper but changing with the weather. Nice idea! Which wallpaper do you have? can you post it?
[G1 Apps and Games] sputnik99:
You are faster than I can download :-))

Thanks for your constant work!
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
I'll be flamed for so much updates, but I prefer to have a stable version on market ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] :
Hello the new widget is great :)

But here are some things that need improvement:

1. Showing the last passed event may be better than showing ---

2. Why not showing all events of the following days? I like to see all things i have to do the next day. Maybe optional?

3. The 3rd day preview is sometimes cut off, maybe a sroll function is needed or move the big sun and big temperature coments completely to the left and the townname too and start calendar entries for the same day on top of the widget. Now much space is not used. Now half widget is used for only one day.

Sorry for big pics. :o

Pappl
[G1 Apps and Games] athurdent:
right now i'm using it with the a lost theme wallpaper from the wallpaper pack here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=482518

but it works fine with every background where you can't make out if it's dawn or dusk. ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
pasted events > bof ... and what would I show is no pasted events are available ?

multiday events > yes, that's a good idea, I'll add it

layout > I'll try this layout, I'll keep you informed.
[G1 Apps and Games] uberingram:
Well, the big calendar list bug got fixed by my 4x2 is still just display "---" instead of anything from my calendar. :(
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
What do you think about this new layout

As usual, you'll be able to choose for :

- main icon current or forecast condition

- show/hide forecast temp

It's just a picture, if you want to propose something else, change this PSD file :

new bug report : recurring appointements not managed
[G1 Apps and Games] athurdent:
one small problem might arise with the grey temperature. looks good in your example but might cause problems with other skins. i assume the colour cannot be canged by the user?

maybe go for something like this, not as pretty but more compatible.

edit: not only for the first one of course, i was lazy ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
It's a semi white (already used in all other widgets sizes), it should be OK, but if not, it's not the most difficult to change ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] athurdent:
ah, cool!

another thing, maybe you could remove the star in front of all day events? i don't get the purpose of it and think it does not look that nice, but maybe that's just me :)
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
new proposal :

- align all events = more clear

- little overlay of 1 day date on 1 day icon
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
yes, already removed.

only a '>' to show that this events start before the date.
[G1 Apps and Games] athurdent:
fine, looking forward to a new beta :)
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
I also have complains about duration.

Before for current day, it was remaining time. Now, it will always be duration.

new beta in 30minutes, but without new layout ;)
